Retail members of the Accessories Resource Team (ART) frequently cite the popular Retailer Roundtable discussions as one of the group’s most valuable programs. Conveniently timed and located on-site during major markets, these sessions bring about a dozen stores together to pose anonymous questions to one another and share answers in a confidential environment, moderated by Executive Director Sharon Davis.

We are thrilled to partner with ART to create the first-ever lighting showroom-focused roundtable for the January Dallas Market. Showroom IdeaShare will be held at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 20, in the ART meeting room (WTC 166).

This forum will enable you to discuss real-world issues relating to running your business, from personnel management to buying strategies. The format inherently ensures that the topics of greatest interest to the participants involved have the floor.

To keep the conversation productive, space is limited and advance registration is required. Just e-mail me or Sharon to stake out your spot. And although I encourage you to join ART if you’re not already a member, ART membership is not required for participation in this groundbreaking event.
